Possible cause
More than 10 seconds have
passed since the appliance
was switched on
The lock is switched on
The child safety device is
switched on
Several sensor fields were
touched at the same time
Safety cut-out has been trig-
gered
The cooking zone was only
on for a short time and is
therefore not hot
There is still residual heat on
the cooking zone
The highest heat setting is
set
One or more sensor fields
have been covered for longer
than 10 seconds
The control panel is wholly or
partly covered by objects.
The On/Off sensor field has
been covered up, e.g. by a
cloth
Power management is reduc-
ing the power of this cooking
zone
Remedy
Switch the appliance on
again.
Switch off the lock (See the
section "Locking/unlocking
the control panel")
Deactivate child safety de-
vice (See the section "Child
safety device")
Only touch one sensor field
Remove any objects (pan,
cloths, etc.) that are lying on
the control panel. Switch the
appliance on again
If the cooking zone is sup-
posed to be hot, call your lo-
cal Service Force Centre.
Let the cooking zone cool
down
The highest heat setting has
the same power as the auto-
matic warm up function
Uncover sensor field
Remove objects.
Do not place any objects on
the control panel
